Quick keyboard check.
« on: Thu, 03 November 2011, 00:00:38 »
Hello,

This is probably in the wrong section, but I have a question.
I'm just wondering if this is actually a mechanical keyboard: (I can't seem to able to post URLs)
There is a link that states it is a mechanical keyboard, but I've been wrong about these things before.
I'm assuming these are rather common, but out of curiosity, how much are they worth?

Thank you,
Warren

It definitely is. It's a Cherry 11900. Comes in several different varieties, such as browns, maybe clears, and perhaps blues? I don't recall.
Risen from the dead for a model F.

Wyse buy colors were GSY for the dark grey, GBA for the light grey, and BBI for the fonts.

Actually they come with blacks only, no exceptions.

Thanks for the replies.

How common are these keyboards and how much are they actually worth?

Pretty common, a used one in good condition is $20-40 I would say.
If you live in AZ you can try my keyboards. I usually keep plenty of different ALPS and MX and buckling springs.

Not sure about the worth but new ones sell for about 140 USD at Amazon US. Link

Thanks! I'll buy it then.

As for posting links: technically, how many posts do I need before being able to post a link?
